I really don't have any flavor text for this. There really isn't any info I've been able to find on the wiki sites. This station was not dockable in SWG, and I do not recall any information other than it existed and TIE fighters spawned around it from when I played SWG before the game got permanently shut down.

I have provided hangar related files and made it dockable. I think it'll replace one of the five freed up PLT slots using my XWA vanilla campaign fix using Jeremya's craft replacer hook. I personally loaded it into slot 4, and utilized the default station stats. Download

I still need to update the descriptions for the craft, but in the meantime enjoy. Part of the reason for this early upload and announcement is that I'd like a few suggestions for the ingame information.

The top pad is where the player docks/undocks, the bottom pad theoretically can be used to either dock larger ships or park containers. There are hardpoints for each of the lower pads to facilitate this.

Very very nice! It's look like part of a modular station: it could be assambled like a tube...

Interesting design! Remind me some stations from the old Elite games!

Might be a crazy suggestion, but what about replacing Imperial Platforms (PLTs) in B1M4 and B3M6 with this one, even if the design is different?

Something similar has been done in the past with the new model of the Imperial Research Center by DTM.

Just a strange idea...

It's not a bad idea, it's just not an XWAUP model or an XQ series station. Unlike the rebel platform, or DTMs version of the research station there isn't really an equivalent I dont think if you're suggesting for inclusion for official support here perse.

Obviously if you'd play with it patched in on your own volition or say in a total conversion that would be integrated to the campaign I don't see why not.
